If you cannot debate in a civil manner then you are not welcome here. Independence and politics are an emotive subject, however please behave in a civil manner. This relates to posters on both sides of the debate. 1930's Germany, proto fascists, dribbling simpleton etc etc There is really no need and repeats of this behaviour will mean you will no longer be posting here. Let's draw a line under this and see how it goes.

He had an entire page to himself a few days ago. Still some gold to glean, however - when did the whole "P&B has threatened to kill me!" thing start up? That's almost as good as the desperate pleas for P&B to start a republican army so nutters can finally have some proof of the terrible violence at the heart of the evil Nationalist movement. @BigFatTabbyDave if you've any predictions for the Illinois Powerball numbers next week, DM me them and there's a pint in it for you chief.

Interesting interpretation of what I posted but the politics sub section will be going nowhere. Not so much, but there's a definite subsection of folks here that are straight up arguing in bad faith trolls. While it doesn't enrich anyone spiritually or grow anyone as human beings, I can see why sometimes some folks are less than civil by way of response. ETA - re this bit - 'Posters who continually abuse others will be though.' which you added after I replied; I agree, personal abuse is never warranted. You will be well aware though, that those who argue in bad faith also look for any opportunity they can to play the innocent victim, particularly online where context is highly malleable. Tommy Robinson being 'convicted of journalism' et al. Edited February 1, 2020 by carpetmonster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posters who continually abuse others will be though.As I said last night there will usually be low level name calling here - I can sort of live with that - if you have a political opinion expect to take the flak from someone who disagrees with you. What a particular poster did last night went though way beyond name calling and he was deservedly banned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shock that you were banned just a few days ago and are on here pontificating about who should be getting banned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear oh dear. Here we go again. I carefully constructed an argument that built up to that. Not my fault you are incapable of understanding it. You however threw out a ridiculous insult with absolutely no proof. You are now on ignore (until you get banned again and come back under another profile) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Aye because you're full of shite and you know so you'll never reply. Why did we have a referendum in the first place when yes was polling 20 odd percent at the time ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
